Quick access to recently used files when attaching documents in Thunderbird

[Sylwe12]

It would greatly improve workflow if Thunderbird offered a feature to show the most recently used files when clicking the “Attach” button in a new email.
Currently, users have to manually navigate through folders each time, which is time-consuming and interrupts productivity.

Proposed behavior:

• When clicking “Attach”, Thunderbird displays a list of recently attached files at the top.

• Users can quickly select files from this list without searching their directories.

• Optional: a limit of 5–10 recent files to keep the list concise.

This feature would save time for teachers, office workers, and anyone who frequently attaches the same files in emails.
